Haven't seen any of mine yet. It's a Savage Mako .22lr
Nice gun!! looks like mine without the SS barrel
WILDCAT 500, .22rf single-shot, circa 1970s, unknown number produced by at least two different companies: Mtn. Arms, Inc. in Ozark, MO and Rau Arms Corp. in El Dorado, KS. Mine has a gray parkerized finish and is in NRA VG+ condition.
Action is similar to the better-known Garcia Bronco of roughly the same era.
Though the Broncos had wire "skeleton" stocks, the Wildcat was available with wooden, or wood-looking plastic inserts, like my gun is wearing, inside its "skeleton" stock.
All variations of this little guy sell for mucho $$$ - when they can be found. They were produced in both a takedown model, and a non-takedown like this one.
I'm told these guns were written about in the earliest Grant book on .22 rifles. I've not had a chance to look for a copy yet.

Umm mine is the blued version but I got mine form site sponsor frontier. They said on the phone they have the stainless version as well but it just wasn't listed on their website. I believe it was going for $569. Worth giving them a call if your interested. It's toll free 
Yes it was $569 and came with hard case. I got it from Perry's gun & Bow shop in Sault Ste. Marie
Is that considered an AR variant, or is it built on a 10/22 receiver? I can't tell.
My Spike 22
Second That.
